Emotional Boundaries
We hear often about the importance of setting boundaries as a way of practicing self-care, but what about emotional boundaries? Have you ever intentionally created space to become aware of the way your body reacts to the emotions of another? Or how comfortable you are expressing your own emotions? Often times in childhood, we learn through social conditioning within our families, our communities, and our culture, how to dance with our emotions and the emotions of others. Maybe we learned that we should not make our father angry or that we were somehow responsible when our mother cried. All of these complicated pieces come into play as we learn more about our relationship with emotions and the emotional boundaries we create in our lives. Join Karen Iverson Riggers and Lynn McLaughlin as they dive deep into emotional boundaries and how they play out in life.
